Carell does not stray far from the clueless character he plays on "The Office," and the film is formula-driven. Paul Rudd is a low-level drone who brings Steve Carell, whose avocation is making "mousterpieces," meticulously constructed dioramas using dead rodents. In this remake of a French film, a bunch of corporate snobs compete to bring the biggest loser to dinner.

The result is a smart bomb of a film that illustrates how technology and innovation influence human behavior. And Fincher moves the elements around as effortlessly and seamlessly as a line of code. Trent Reznor's ruthless soundscape is like a 9-inch nail to the head. Justin Timberlake plays a cautionary, beta version of Zuckerberg. As Zuckerberg, Jesse Eisenberg tears off and spits out chunks of Aaron Sorkin's staccato dialogue.
Brilliant movie.THE SOCIAL NETWORK (Sony) David Fincher's tightly wound story of Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg is a new-media "Citizen Kane." Like the book it is based on, the story revolves around lawsuits filed against Zuckerberg by former friends and colleagues who accuse him of stealing their idea. It would be a good and effective learning material for parents or older people to use to teach young people as a way to prepare and make them understand how the world works. Using cartoons as a medium to convey the kind of messages it did was also a brilliant move on the part of the producer and creators of this film. But overall, this can be overlooked since after all, it isn't only with wits or pure strength alone that would allow a person to find solutions to the problems that they face in their lives. One small crutch from the plot was its use of circumstance to move the story along. A divide that caused unrest among the ones that should be working towards improving society. The "true" conflict presented was also as relevant as it was when this film was released. I wasn't expecting to find this to be a source of encouragement and inspiration, but that's what it delivered. Sound familiar? It may have delivered a couple of messages that people have already heard dozens of times, but that doesn't take away the strength it gives to those who believe that what matters the most is trying to do things right in their lives and in society. She was forced to face reality for what it truly was. When Judy Hopps, a country rabbit, shoots for her dreams as a part of the police force in Zootopia(Zootropolis), things weren't what she expected it to be. "A little bit of kindness goes a long way" would be a perfect quote for this film.
